While driving through Somalia, we came across this battered tank – a casualty of the Somali civil war:

I was surprised to see that it still had its number plate:

The armed guard we hired, Mahamed Ali, poses next to the bombed-out tank for me:

This crude graveyard was just behind the tank which led me to wonder if it contained the remains of the tank crew and some of those accompanying it… Or perhaps it was the other way around and contains the remains of those that were fighting against the tank occupants?
